Bride's Parents Names at the Bottom of the Invite?

Hi All,

Somewhere in all of my online research about invitations and wording, I saw bride's parents names at the bottom of the invite, which is something my mom would prefer over a more traditional Mr. and Mrs. Jones request invitation.

Has anyone else seen this and/or know where to put their names?

Here's our wording so far, I'm not sure where to put it?
TIA!
Kate

    If your parents aren't hosting then I wouldn't put them on the invitation. Also, your invitation is in the 1st person and it should be in the 3 rd person. Honor of one's presence is reserved for weddings that take place in a house of worship. If you're getting married in a hotel then your invitation requests the pleasure of the guests' company.
